Do not miss this rare opportunity to participate in a traditional Tohono O’odham saguaro fruit harvest and meal preparation led by a Native Tohono O’odham harvester. This excursion will begin in Tucson as we will travel by van to the fruit harvest camp within the saguaro forest. Learn about Native traditions, tools, and the anthropology associated with this special event as you harvest saguaro fruit as it has been done for centuries.
This trip also features ethnobotanist Martha Burgess interpreting the ecology and natural history of this iconic cactus. Afterward, we will process the fruit and prepare a traditional feast with the fruits of our harvest. This is an unforgettable experience you will remember for a lifetime. Limit 15.
